In figure 1.2 and 1.3 we have prepared the forest. Since this is a brand new setup this steps are required. If you already have an existing environment then you can go ahead with schema preparation and then start directly with core setup.

Points to remember

Windows Update can help move the setup easily

Before beginning the setup ensure that Windows Server 2012 Setup media is ready.
